s0n1c87 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I decided to start a thread on the forum to share my reef tank. Still in the processing of learning. Just converted from FOWLR tank to softie/LPS tank 1months plus back. Running skimless and doing 5-10% water changes per wk 6 ATI 2ft T5 tubes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. Quarium Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Lots of colorful corals you got there! The pics with the gobies are very well taken! I take it your tank does well without a skimmer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0n1c87 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 Beautiful photos bro! And you have a nice collection of gobies Thanks bro. My tank small and I like gobies and blennies. Still slowly collecting them. Some of them not really eating. Nvr see they eat pellet or mysis shrimp. Hopefully they gt their own way of surviving inside my tank. *cross fingers* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Angel Keeper Posted October 18, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted October 18, 2014 So if you dunno the type, then how you know your tank is ready for it out whether it's it suitable for your tank? I think it'll be good if you just Google the general information first before making the purchase...
